Personalized Three Kings Day Books for Kids

A Three Kings Day Story Starring Your Child

The night of January 5, your child leaves their shoes out with a box of grass for the camels, then wakes up to see what Melchor, Gaspar, and Baltasar left behind. You won't find a Día de Reyes book with their face and name in it on a shelf, so this one is written and drawn for your family, whether your child is three and believes every word or old enough to cut the rosca.

• Your child waits for the Three Kings in the story, drawn from a photo
• Written around how your family celebrates, the night before and the day itself
• Add parents, siblings, grandparents, and cousins as characters, up to 4 people
• Shoes by the door, grass under the bed, or the parade downtown
• A hardcover the Kings can leave by their shoes

A Keepsake That Comes Out Every January

For a lot of families here, Christmas gets the attention and January 6 is the day that's really theirs, the one the grandparents grew up with in Mexico, Puerto Rico, Spain, or the Dominican Republic. A personalized Three Kings Day book keeps that day in the details: the grass in the shoebox, the rosca, which King always brought the best gift.

Read it on the night of January 5 while the shoes wait by the door.
